Chapter 1456: Chapter 1456

With the destruction of the Wild Wind Giant, the violent winds of this place gradually began to subside, and in due course, this land will return to its usual state.

Speaking of which, despite the ferocious winds, this area is vast with quite fertile land, and it is said to contain some precious ores. The place has always been uninhabited, but that might change soon. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥

After all, there are many countries around here, and it’s very likely that they’ll come to compete over this place.

If it leads to a major war, Du You wouldn’t find it the least bit surprising.

"Next up, the nearest to us is that Lava Giant, the one in control of the volcanic area, if I recall correctly. Let’s go. Have the Wild Wind Guardians Family contact the Guardian Family there first."

Having returned to the Wild Wind Family, Du You instructed them to get in touch with the next Guardian Family while preparing to leave. As for the feast they had arranged, Du You had no interest and set out directly.

After another full day, Du You and the two sisters finally arrived at the predetermined location.

However, the surroundings looked quite dilapidated. "What’s going on? Wasn’t it agreed to meet here? Why isn’t there a feast prepared?" Lin Yushi looked around the desolate landscape in confusion.

"All you think about is a feast. We aren’t here for food. Besides, there doesn’t seem to be anything good about this place."

Everywhere in the Lava Giant’s domain, there are volcanoes, especially at the center where they are numerous and erupting with magma daily. If it were just the lava, it might be bearable, but the accompanying disasters are more troublesome.

Volcanic eruptions could easily trigger earthquakes, so buildings here are uncommonly low with no tall structures.

And frequently, the scene is enveloped by volcanic ash, with plenty falling from the sky each day. The ground gets higher towards the middle, resembling a small plateau.

"It’s probably because of the unique environment here, their living areas might be different," Du You conjectured.

It wasn’t long before someone approached where Du You was. The person, dressed in a black robe, cautiously asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Du You?" The caller inquired from a distance.

Du You nodded: "Yes, that’s me. Now lead me to your residence."

Although the other party did not use honorific titles such as Saint or Hero, as others did, Du You didn’t mind.

Upon confirming Du You’s identity, the person nodded in satisfaction then said, "Please follow me." Leading Du You and the sisters, the group flew towards another location.

Lin Yushi murmured, "They’re really cautious, aren’t they? Is the residence that far away?"

The leading figure suddenly laughed and said, "Of course not; this place is temporarily prepared for you."

Before Du You could react, a surge of powerful auras erupted around them. Balls of fire, akin to lava, were hurled their way. Du You’s eyes narrowed as he sensed people ambushing them.

Even the one who led the way attacked, revealing their intent. All of them were sixth-tier, and to be able to dispatch over a dozen in one go, this Lava Guardians Family really was formidable.

Yet, they dared to ambush him, which Du You found very odd. With a shimmer of dark light, Du You was no longer in the same spot, and the sisters, too, avoided the attack at their fastest speed, without using space teleportation.

"Are you really people of the Lava Guardians Family? Why attack us?" Du You asked, curious.

"Haha, you came to kill the great Divine Spirit, of course we have to kill you," the encircling attackers, over a dozen sixth-tier adversaries, believed three sixth-tiers like them posed no challenge.

"Others may call you a hero, but how could you possibly kill the great Divine Spirit’s Doppelganger without the God Destroying Runes?"

"Aren’t you believers of the Origin God? Why have you turned into those monsters?" Lin Yucha was equally curious.

"What monsters? Those are the incarnations of the great Elemental God. It doesn’t matter which god, a god is a god. The Origin God only saw us as labor, and for so many years we gained nothing. But by worshipping the Elemental God, he’s never asked us for anything. As long as we offer some sacrifices, we get great power in return."

Du You understood; no wonder there were so many sixth-tiers here, with two of them at an advanced stage. Without them fully releasing their power, they were almost at the same level.

But what Du You didn’t expect was that a Guardian Family would secretly pledge allegiance to another Divine Spirit, and merely a creature at that. It was quite ironic, and it seemed this trap was specifically set for him.

"Can you tell us where your Family’s residence is? I believe the statues of the Origin God haven’t been destroyed," Du You started to probe.

"Hmph, of course not. Even though the Origin God is an Evil God, he is still a Divine Spirit. How can his statues be easily destroyed? Besides, we still need to..."

Before he could finish, an elder interrupted: "You’ve said too much. Enough, it’s getting late, let’s send them on their way." The people around moved to fight upon hearing this.

Du You felt frustrated; he was so close to getting more information, which would have saved them trouble later on.

However, since the fight had started, Du You held nothing back. The sisters immediately unleashed a barrage of arrows they had prepared. The native powers of this world might not be weak, but they were far outclassed in comparison to them.

After a volley of arrows, almost everyone was injured. Lin Yucha began her harvest, combining forces with Du You’s Shadow Spirit Light Ball. In less than a minute, except for the two late sixth-tier survivors, the rest were dead.

"How is this possible? How can your strength be so enormous? This can’t be happening."

The two remaining figures, despite their wounds, looked at Du You in disbelief. They were all sixth-tiers, so why was there such a vast discrepancy in strength? The power Du You displayed far exceeded their imagination.

"You must be a demonic entity, you’re sent by demons. Hahaha, I knew it; you’ve come to thwart the great Divine Spirit’s resurrection." The two elders seemed to have lost their sanity.

Lin Yucha shook her head, "Using power that is not your own always has risks. Even though they’ve achieved late sixth-tier power, their minds clearly have issues." It’s unthinkable for normally cultivated sixth-tiers to behave .

Their basis as Professionals are incredibly stable, and they’d never heard of anyone having such troubles before.
